[Elecraft] KX3 roofing filter touching DC jack

[Todd Gahagan]

Hi Mike,  I had to file off the small bumps on the edge of the filter circuit board to get mine to fit properly.  This was okayed by Elecraft. Be sure to wear an ESD strap while doing this.  Just a thought. Todd

> Good afternoon all, almost done putting my KX3 kit together I have the roofing filter installed and when asked to on page 32 of assembly manual to fit the top and bottom covers of the KX3 I have a fitting issue. The top left is not fitting flush as is the top right corner is. It seems to me the DC jack is bottoming out on the roofing filter board. I have removed the roofing filter board and all fits fine. I have very carefully looked to see if the roofing filter is seated and it is also the long screw fit no problem into the roofing filter board to hold it in place as well...........any ideas??
